Why place this in debate?

Wouldn't it fit better someplace else?

Che Guevara.

He is the quintessential symbol of revolution and resistance against dictatorial powers. He also gave his knowledge and experience in resistance fighting to the world in the books he wrote. He demonstrated that anyone could rise up and lead people in a resistance against un-just governance.

Then I will have to go with the turkey hero, just because I like turkey better than salami.

I forgot the who part....I like Subway

The Brain? They make a brain hero? Grrrrrooooossssss

Frank Lloyd Wright. He did his own thing, no matter what anybody else thought. But he had the juice to back it up, since he was the absolute best at what he did.

Actually, that show isn't too bad

It's still on in your market? I'm jealous.

Marcus Tullius Cicero: A man of no illustrious background, who had never commanded an army, who never seized power over the Roman Republic, as so many men had done before him - and yet who still somehow managed to ascend to the same level of greatness as Crassus, Pompey, Caesar, and Octavian. A man who stuck by his convictions, but who also stuck to his principles to the very end.

Also, I must admit that I feel a certain kinship with Cicero in that his keen wit and scathing rhetorical retorts nevertheless often got him into trouble, and eventually brought about his untimely assassination by Mark Antony's thugs. Considering the fact that I'm nowhere near as eloquent as Cicero was, I suppose there's a lesson for me to learn through his biography about keeping my tongue under control - lest I wind up with my head and hands nailed to the Rostra.

Scipio Africanus.

He beat Hannibal.

I don't have heroes, but I do admire Ghandi quite a bit.

If we're talking political/leader type hereoes then for me it's Lee Kwan Yew

LeeD for getting rid of the wiki's!

Mordecai Anielewicz.

Patrick Wolf because he's sexy.
